It seems like the 3.7L engine has overheat issue if tracking. Nissan is aware of the issue and makes available oil cooler installation.

If anything, it was the 335 that had overheating problems when tested against the G37.
But I noticed though that our engine DO generate alot of heat I can sometimes feel it when I'm at a drive through and my windows are rolled down.

I thought it was the 335i that overheated at the track during that testing session. That's news to me... The only thing i take to the track is my GSX-R 750 so i'm not too concerned with this.

In the Engine forum there are some people who have had overheating issues when tracking the car. The limp home mode is trigger by the engine oil overheating. I think some people said they added an oil cooler and it seems to have solved the problem.
Here's the thread:
